FLAT PANEL SOLAR COLLECTOR
Inquire NowDescription
The FLAT PANEL SOLAR COLLECTOR is a highly efficient solar energy system designed to convert sunlight into heat energy. This innovative product features a glazed flat-plate design, consisting of a shallow rectangular box with a flat black absorber plate positioned behind a tempered glass cover. The absorber plate is connected to a series of parallel tubes or a serpentine tube, through which water or an antifreeze solution circulates. As sunlight penetrates the glazing, it heats the absorber plate, effectively transforming solar energy into thermal energy.
The heated liquid absorbs the warmth from the sunlight and can either be directed to a heat exchanger or integrated into a conventional heating system. In commercial settings, the solar-heated water is typically stored in a tank linked to the existing water heating infrastructure. While flat-plate solar collectors perform best in warmer conditions, they are ideal for applications requiring medium to high temperatures, making them a versatile choice for various heating needs.
